I was not here in this site this morning. I been to church early morning to attend the Sunday Mass, and after church I proceeded to the house of my best friend who has just arrived from Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States of America. She is my friend since 2006. We were classmates in one of my graduate studies course. She is a teacher there. All her three children are already there and continue their studies. Her husband was working as a seaman but died four years ago due to complicated sicknesses. She has just arrived three days ago and messaged me in Facebook to have a lunch spree this day in her home. I also received belated birthday gifts from her. I may show them next day. My cellular phone is in low bat mode. The picture here shows partial foods she prepares this lunch time, Ph time. She also has other visitors. There are almost 35 visitors of my friend named Alma Apolinar. I am so happy to have her one among my best of best friends. We have to treasure friendship for they are also more than gold. Thanks for reading guys and have nice afternoon from Philippines to yours. Image here the partial foods prepared by my friend Alma.

We have been to Albuquerque several years ago, we spend a week in Santa Fe (New Mexico) and we visited the area. This is a lot of food, did she order or made herself?

@LadyDuck, how lucky you are. Is New Mexico a good country? These foods were ordered by my friend from a nearby restaurant.

@cacay1 Santa Fe is an interesting city, New Mexico is not the state that we liked more.

@LadyDuck why is that so? Is it a rugged country? It's near Grand Canyon. Have you gone to this Canyon?

@flapiz, I do not eat lechon or never to pork. I stopped eating pork when I was 17 due to many reasons about the harm of pork. I only eat fruits, deep fried chicken, and escabeche.

@thelme55 Me and my family members at home and relatives do not eat pork. We just lost the interest of eating pork when see how the piggery owners feed their pigs with chemicals bad for humans. That is one cause of a bad sickness like arthritis, stroke due to high blood pressure.

@cacay1 Really? Not a bit of lechon? I seldom eat lechon when I go home to Pinas, not my kind of foood. I don't even buy it if I can ignore the requests of my siblings. I prefer fish and veggies.

@cacay1 it's a she, actually. I still eat pork but lesser than I used to before. And I don't really like lechon particularly, I think I was weird because everyone seems to love it.
